Welcome

The network plans to extended its list of partner universities for the coming academic year. The new institutions are the Kaposvár University, Óbuda University and the University of Szeged.

One of our network's aim is to organise several cultural and touristic programmes for its members as well to make the students' stay in Hungary pleasant and to make sure they get familiar with as many of the country’s values as possible. Each event organised by the Network is free for students.

Due to the current emergency situation caused by the Coronavirus, the network had to change its normal operation as well. The trainings and the cultural programmes are being transformed into an online format at least until the end of October.

There will be trainings available online, on this page. The topics of the trainings are the following: learning methodology, intercultural communication, time management and financial management.

Further cultural and e-learning materials are prepared about Hungary's national holidays, history, significant figures in enternatinment industry, Nobel-prize winners, literature, history of film and inventors

After watching each video, students can do some tests and quizes to get some points. The ones who get the most points receive valuable gifts.

For more information please check the subpage "Abouts us".
